if you shut up long enough to read,you would see that i said it was a fuel delivery problem,you really like to talk chit dont you,nobody likes a chit talker.

Really.. I know enough that you tune one on the dyno before removing it and throwing it in your boat!!! Admit it Mike if you would have tuned them properly you wouldn't have torched them.. To me thats just common sense.. When you were making the dyno pulls did you pull the plugs and read them? Did you have any way of reading the AFR's?

I still think the Quick Fuel carbs are great carbs they just need proper tuning for your application!!! Maybe I'm wrong but I doubt it!!!

Not talking sh!t.. I know exactly what happened to your engines!!!!

You guy's need to get back on the phone and get your stories straight!! One guy says it's a different brand of gas and a weather change the other one says it's a fuel delivery problem and I don't remember what else you all said but, I still gotta ask did you read the plugs between dyno pulls and were you able to take AFR readings? To me with a engine that has the power you say it does that would be a important thing to do to make sure it's right.. Does that make sense to you?

I know a sh!t load of guys running blowers that absolutely aren't worried about which brand of gas to use because of the weather.. You guys just can't admit failure plain and simple!!! The carbs do the job when there tuned properly..
you would never understand the way a racer thinks,,everything is run on the ragged edge and weather is a key factor...most guys run their blower engines fat or with the afr's at 11.0 or less so they live..i run my struu a bit on the lein side but i also pay attension to it..

you need to go back and watch mikes video,,egt and afr's were hooked up as far as i can see..you dont need to pull plugs if you have the proper data software..

it is obvious that you have no seat time in a 1200 hp,120 mph boat,il give you a little free lesson,the fuel pump goes inbetween the tank& the carb,what do you think happens when it stops producing the volume of fuel that is required at that hp level,even a simpelton like you might know the answer.

If that were the case and I doubt it.. Don't you look at the fuel pressure gauges when your running?

Really and how would you know that? I've got seat time in 1200hp 135mph boats, I also know that it takes more than a driver to run at those speeds someone has to ALWAYS have there eye's on the gauges just in case you start to experience fuel delivery problems!!!

ok mike this is what he wants to hear..mike t you suck at building engines,,everyone you have built has blown the phuck up (even tho you have a ''fuel delivey problem in your fountain'' that you did not know about and that what also phucked up the old engine even tho you never really drove the boat before you bught it and your esp should have told you that its all your fault.............oh and even tho you paid 600 dollars to dyno that engine with all the proper data anolog equipment and still made over twice the amount of hp that the guy in ? wants to hear...

mike your just a total phuck up and you should hang yourself in your 40 x 80 heated and a/c that icdedppl installed for you in front of your brand new ford f350 crewcab 4x4 and still hooked to your 38' fountain which sits next to your 130 mph AO cat which sits next to your suburban inbetween the lift that you service your vehicles on that is in back of the other spare 588 completely dressed which is next to another 30k in tools and tool boxs and in front of them is a over head gantry and inbetween all the cool stuff is the forklift....so everything i mentioned your still a dumb phuck!!!!!

You guys never pulled plugs in the boat or hooked up AFR all motor guys know that you walk up on a new motor and read spark plugs and check AFR in the boat , even Eddie Young wont build a motor if he cant tune it in the boat with you .. the motor is a different animal in the boat then on the dyno always has to be walked up 1000 rpm at a time and read spark plugs for lean conditions I hope I didn't ruin your guy's Sunday!!!! And that right there my friends are the FACTS!!!!

You could have avoided the melt down by doing it right don't you think????
